        OK, I live about 5 hours away so we get up at about 5:00 and leave at 5:30, we pick up my friend nick and we go on our way. I slept most of the way but i was awake when we went to McDonald's for breakfast, i wasn't that hungry but my dad said i should eat something to have my wits about me, so i got this steak, egg, and chesse thing and man, was it good but it gives you rancid breath, I'm surprised i didn't kill someone. and then i fell back asleep and wake up around durham about 30 minutes away from raleigh, and we finally get there and we were late. they were about to start so i had to hurry and fill out my deck sheet and pay my fee (I got a new dci card cuz my old rating sucked) and went into the room, and we held it up for a while cuz a judge wasn't there yet, so i played a few games with people and won them all so i feel confident until this one game, he had bill, and pokemon breeder, i was soo mad because the website didn't say anything about being able to play legends so already i'm at a disadvantage >,<. So we start, here i go.

 

Round 1 Me VS Jordan with meganium crobat

        He seemed like a great player, so i'm nervouse but, i went on. He started with a Zubat and a Chicarita, i start with a lone cleffa, flip he goes first he attaches a grass to zubat and poisons cleffa, meh, i draw and it's a ponta and i have a rapidash in my hand so i attach a fire to ponyta retreat to bring in ponyta and then bring cleffa back in, pass, he draws and he breeds into a meganium, MEH (general phrase of discontent) and attaches to it and tries to poison spray, no dice. my turn i evolve attach and i fire mane zubat okay, he puts down a healing feald and he doesn't have another energy so he poison sprays me, i draw do the retreat trick to revive me of the poison heal, headsi attach and stamp tails, i draw a prize, he draws puts down a zubat and attaches to meganium and attacks, i wake up i draw, elm, and i get a crobat line and some grass i attach to zubat and healing, heads yeah, and i fire mane heads, so he's in a bind he has a meganium with 80 damage and a zubat with 10, his turn gold berry on meganium and flips heads on healing and i am asleep, i draw attach to zubat and double gust i retreat to bring in my rapidash and attach a gold to him and i attack the zubat with a focus band i flip for the 10 to meganium heads and he flips for focus, heads >,< meh. he goes and he attaches a dark to meganium and kills me, meh! i bring in the goldbat and evolve into a crobat and i confused him. about 20 minutes later we both have 3 prizes left and i just killed that meganium so 2 to 3 he goes and double gust i have to bring in his crobat and he brings in ponyta and kills it, i bring in my crobat with 5 minutes left and i do 60 damage to his crobat and then he trys to retreat, heads and brings in a cleffa with about 2 minutes left, this is were i got mad, he sat there and looked through his discard pile about 5 times and then the judge calls time right as he is done drawing his new hand from eeeeeeeeking and the judge rules i don't get to have another turn even though it eneded as i was drawing me card and i had a double gust with no bench, i would have killed to cro and won but that wasn't ment to be, oh well draw.

I saw my chances of top 16 slipping away, i had to win the rest of my games in order to have a chance of top 16 but first lunch. I talked to nick and he hadn't won a game either in the side events (he's 15) but dad went and got us, burger king! I hate burger king! but i tried one of those back yard grillers and it was awesome, i recomend it to anyone and everyone ( cept for my mom, Vegatarian, I could live like that ) and during this time i noticed this really cute girl and i got to talking to her and she lived about an hour away from me and i was just dazed for a while &before it got to a point where it turned into Dalwson's Creek it was time for...

        Round 4 Me Vs some pretty cool guy with a very unconsentrated rocket set deck

       

        Remeber that darkness, i loved me this game, it was a lone oddish rocket Vs ponyta i went first put down a zubat attached a fire and passed he went and poisoned me after putting down another oddish, it was my turn and i attached and killed the oddish, he went and evolved into dark gloom thinking that would buy him a turn, but no, i had dakness my turn killed him short game but fun, played a few practice games, and i won those too.

        Round 5 Me Vs Some kid with a steelix Macargo deck

       

        This was insulting, it really was, I was basically playing against myself, he didn't know how to play, i don't think he even knew where he was, i knocked out some steelix and i won, i don't want to type this one up.

        I was so excited, i couldn't stand it. well the announced top 16 and they didn't call my name! i was so excited i thought i was either 7 or 8th but something was a miss, they didn't call my name for top 8 either, i was sitting there ad i went to the computer and it said i was 17th, i said, no i was just now 17th and they went back and they said i was 27th, my hopes and dreams were shot, >.<MEEEEEEEEH!!!!!!! oh well, they gave everyone else 2 boosters and i decided that it was good carma that i should get good stuff in my gymheros and challenge packs, i open the heros pack, damned if it isn't the rare misty's goldeen stareing me in the face, so i decided that i was either getting a rockets zapdos or a blaine's arcanine in my next pack, no he is koga! nonholo lovely. oh well i had fun. I still have another year of this!
